How to get project files at the given time?

Post by vrapp » Thu Feb 11, 2021 1:55 pm

Assuming that I check-in all the files belonging to the project at the time of every release -is there a way to get all project files as they were on the given date? some of them might not have changed ever since, some might have changed 10 times, but I sometimes need the complete source of the old version.

At release time we make sure all required check-ins are complete and then label the project folder with the release number. We can then go back at anytime and get the code from the label to reconstruct the exact source for that release.

It would be convenient if you "embedded" labeling into the check-in dialog in the Visual Studio extension, something like this:
